Muškilāt-us-Sīraẗ

الملخص

The aspects that require special interest in the field of Sīraẗ, include the principles of Sīraẗ and Muškilāt-us-Sīraẗ. In fact, these are at the top of the list. 

What is Muškilāt-us-Sīraẗ? What are its needs and requirements? What are the limitations of this field? And what are the rules to follow for regulating it? In this regard, this article is a beginner's attempt, which has been made to clarify the initial characteristics of this noble field. 

There is a lot of work in Islamic sciences, which deals with Muškilāt ul Qur'ān and Muškilāt ul Hadith. However, the issue of Muškilāt is not limited to these two sciences, there are issues of this nature in more or less every science which we can consider as Muškilāt. We find some work done in a few sciences, but not in all. That’s why no field of knowledge could be introduced with this title. 

The same is true for Muškilāt-us-Sīraẗ. Otherwise, there are discussions in various books, which can be called Muškilāt-us-Sīraẗ, and scholars continue to pay attention to them. 

One thing to keep in mind about Muškilāt-us-Sīraẗ is that quality and quantity may affect this kind of science. And because of this, the status difficulty keeps changing. In particular, it depends on the reader's mental level and attachment to this field. In this sense, the word “Muškil” also has room for disagreement and diversity of thought. Because the Muškilāt of any science cannot be confined to any one type. In this article, some points are presented to cover these aspects.
